Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.
Matt's steps will be more complicated since Annie is using a program to do the constructions hers would probably be precise and easy.
Common denominator = 40
36/40 + 20/40 = 56/40
Reduce and simplify=
7/5, which is 1 and 2/5
Hope that helps
